The Role of ‘Prediction Strategy’ in Reading Comprehension

Abstract

Reading comprehension is deduction of meaning from the text and the structuring of it in the mind. Strategies used in the reading process have an important place in the development of reading comprehension skills. Strategies such as activating preliminary information, determining the purpose of reading, forecasting, taking notes, summarizing, subject/main idea distinction, questioning, inferring, etc. are some of the strategies used by a good reader in the reading process. One of these is the "prediction" strategy. Prediction is making an estimation based on some evidence and data, on a possible future situation. Prediction gives a reason to read; it is used to find out what is right and what is wrong. Predictions serve as guiding points within the text. Students put forth a purpose to read when they make predictions, and expectations arise about what they will read. The predictions made prior to the reading give the student the opportunity to develop a reading plan for him/her and to discuss the topic. Before the teachers begin their reading studies, they should enable students to share, write and explain their predictions about the text through question-answers and through picture analysis and key words.
